(This song is dedicated to my parents, thank you for showing me what it means to be a human being. It is also dedicated to Alicia Patterson and Ann Loomis for providing essential support in the creation of this song.)

I can hate you, blame you, curse your name

Say that things won’t be the same

I’m leaving. You’ll never see me again

This is goodbye my friend.

If I don’t feel the hate

I will just invalidate

The terrified screaming babe

The weeping child who’s been betrayed.

Discerning all of my sensations

Turning ‘round to face within

I’m hoping I can find the patience

To hold this without caving in

I’m earning all of my redemption

I’m paying with my suffering

I’m making pain to justify this

Atone for my unconscious sins.

Looking into your eyes

Hoping I can find

Someone to help me survive

Someone to keep me alive

Hold me in your arms

Please won’t you keep me breathing

Give to me all your fears

Tell me how I am wrong

Show me what it means

To be a human being.

Human Being

Veil Of Doubt

I can see you walking through the forest in a landslide

The veil of doubt has shrouded you from seeing your potential

But you can't escape your destiny, there's nothing that you can do

To stop the cloud from bursting, to stop the dam from breaking

To stop the wave from crashing, to stop the sun from shining

I hear your voice calling me, its beaconing, Its whispering, It sings:
